  • Right off the bat, it is pretty clear that the Grand Cherokee has the more striking appearance of the two. With a sleek exterior fit for both the main trails and back roads, there isn't much of a challenge in this category.
  • Speaking of back roads, the Grand Cherokee is fully off-road capable, giving you that extra edge you need to make an adventure all the more exciting.
